How are all of my August 2015 sleevers doing?

August 20th here and doing FANTASTIC! Down 56 pounds (at a stall right now of course) and feel great! I just put on my work pants this morning and swore because I have to throw them out and get a smaller size. My clothing budget has gone up a lot in the past few months :)

August 8 here. Down 115 pounds, although for the past week the scale has been going up and down the same one pound. I swear it's laughing at me!

Have donated 16 trash bags of clothes (including a couple of bags of clothes that my kids have outgrown). Still shopping out of the stash of clothes that I always refused to get rid of, thinking "maybe someday." I did go out and buy shoes, as my old ones are too big, and a couple of nice tops to wear to work.

I started at 403 pounds. The heavier you start, the more/faster you lose (in general, there are always exceptions). I'm also wondering if my sleeve is smaller than average, as I'm still able to eat only 1/3 cup at meals.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
